Playa de la Arena, Beach in Biscay, Spain
The 966-meter-long Playa de la Arena features dark sand shores and moderate waves along the Cantabrian Sea coastline, bordered by natural cliffs.
The beach area developed alongside the maritime activities of nearby fishing communities, with the establishment of coastal settlements in Ciervana and Musques.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices near the beach, while residents celebrate seasonal festivals that highlight Basque maritime traditions.
The beach provides lifeguard services, shower facilities, and designated parking areas, with easy access from the nearby towns of Pobeña and La Arena.
The beach forms part of the Barbadún estuary protected natural area, designated as a Special Conservation Zone within the Natura 2000 network.
